Va. Pastor Arrested Due to False Police Report; Said Black Man He Helped Shot, Robbed Him

Virginia Pastor George Hunley has been arrested for filing a false police report. He stated that an interracial couple -- a white woman and black man -- had shot and robbed him after he stopped to be a "Good Samaritan" and attempted to help them with car trouble they were having, the Kulture Kritic website reports today (February 8, 2015).

Hunley was released following his arrest and has been officially charged with the misdemeanor offense of making false statements to the police.

He reported that the black man pulled a gun on him after he pulled over to help the couple. He also reported that a struggle ensued during which he was shot twice in the leg before escaping and driving himself to his house where he called police to make the report.

Authorities said the first clue that Hunley was lying was that they were not able to find any blood in his car from the alleged gunshot wounds he received. Louis Sheriff's Office Major Don Lowe reports that there was in fact no robbery that took place.
